This is a frequently asked question and, as you might expect, is covered in their FAQs. The answer has changed as their printing/binding process has changed. I don't recall the new details. But the old approach was to take two copies of the pano sized to fit the 2640x2 size of the two pages together, drop one on the left page, left justified, drop the other on the right page, right justified, and tweek horizontal positioning to apparent goodness. The pink zone in preview mode gives a good indication of what may be vanishing into the interpaginal void.
